By Election Results.

Labour have won the by-elections in Ealing Southall and in Blair's old constituency of Sedgfield.

Ealing Southall - Was a bit messy, i would have gone along to campaign for us, but couldn't as i had school and then was away on Duke of Edinburgh expedition in Scotland, but glad to see we won, as was expected. Was a really good kick in the nuts for good ol' Davie C.

Labour's majority was reduced by over 7% with a 5¼% swing to the Lib Dems, with the Tories again in 3rd, God it is good to see the Tories doing badly! The Greens had a decent result, finishing in fourth followed by George Galloway’s Respect Party (hate the man and i am so glad that he has been banned from the Commons for i think it is 17 days), UKIP, the Christian Party, an Independent, the Monster Raving Loony Party, English Democrats and two more Independents.

I was slightly surprised that the Fascist BNP didn't do better, as normally in places with a large migrant community, such as Ealing, you get a few racist, disenfranchised bigoted white van men sorts who turn to the far right. Glad to see that such people were in short supply, guess they may have voted for the EDP or some of the independents.


In Balir's old constituency we also won, as was expected, but with a big fall in our majority.

Phil Wilson, but Labour saw its majority drop by 14% with an 11% swing towards the Lib Dems who leapfrogged the Tories to take second place with the fascist BNP doing rather well coming in fourth place, rather worrying eh?
